Fun Is Good

In the workplace of the St. Paul Saints, a costumed pig tosses out the balls, "ushertainers" serenade you in the stands and games are always sold out.

And, while a day at the ballpark might sound like a good time any time, when it's your job, it can mean a fifteen-hour day. Whether they're cleaning the bleachers, keeping the books or taking care of customers, these employees work hard.

So, how do they stay positive? For the St. Paul Saints, fun is an attitude, an experience. It's why everyone from head groundskeeper to the president is passionate about coming to work. Having fun on the job makes these employees more creative, more productive, and ultimately more satisfied. They don't take themselves too seriously. They treat each other with respect. And they make every day an event. Footage covers how to hold yourself accountable for ethical behavior, how to regularly communicate organizational values and ethical standards to staff so they are certain about what is/isn't acceptable and why it's important to recognize those who act ethically.
